HashiCorp Vault Cluster
HashiCorp Vault is a secrets-management system that centralizes storage, dynamic generation, and access control for credentials, encryption keys, and certificates. It brokers short-lived secrets to applications and infrastructure through policy-based authentication instead of long-lived static credentials scattered across config files.
Baseline topologies
| Topology | Minimum nodes | Roles |
|---|---|---|
| three-node-raft | 3 | vault-server |
| five-node-raft | 5 | vault-server |
What drives the cost
- Peak secret requests per second
- Peak rate of secret read/write operations. Drives active node CPU and memory requirements.
- Total secrets/keys stored
- Total number of secrets, keys, and configuration entries. Drives integrated storage size.
